Film director Ridley Scott is from the North East and based the opening shot of Blade Runner on the view of the old ICI plant at Wilton. He said: “There’s a walk from Redcar … I’d cross a bridge at night, and walk above the steel works. So that’s probably where the opening of Blade Runner comes from. It always seemed to be rather gloomy and raining, and I’d just think “God, this is beautiful.” You can find beauty in everything, and so I think I found the beauty in that darkness.” It has been claimed that the site was also considered as a shooting location for one of the films in Scott's Alien franchise.

On actors, figures and staging German criticism of Die Welle was extremely divided. Solely the opinions on the actors were always the same. “From the first scene on, the sympathetic guy tears the audience on his side”, it was reported about Jürgen Vogel, he was transforming the moral ambiguity of his figure into a “mercurial energy”.Andreas Kilb: Auf Wiedersehen, Kinder In: Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, 13. März 2008, S. 36 He played his role realistically, was “credible” or the ideal cast. For the young actors the most frequently used word was “convincing”,Eva Maria Schlosser: Das Experiment entgleist In: Stuttgarter Nachrichten, 13. März 2008, S. 20 while the 18-year- old Frederick Lau in his role as the outcast Tim received special highlighting. In contrast to the praise for the actors, many critics demurred on the figures, developed by the screenplay. They criticized that the psychological developments are missed out, Wenger and the other figures are partially constructed by cliches, or defined by “something model-like”, they also argued that the figures are “slightly oversubscribed stereotypes”Julia Teichmann: Macht, Gemeinschaft, Disziplin In: Berliner Zeitung, 12. März 2008, S. 27 or “placeholders”.
